Psh. Sensitive Dudebros ride bitch to Manic Pixie Dream Girls not the other way around. Although I've seen that trope played gender reversed and same-sex (both platonic and romantic) often enough that I don't really think of it as male-romance oriented.

IRL, in my experience, that kind of crazy is just way too stressful to sustain for any long period of time. Not that they aren't fun people to be around when they blow into town and rearrange your life for a couple weeks.

This one lost me at "Sensitive Dudebro".... I think my copy of the Derogatory Terms Encyclopedia is out of date or something.

Although, Manic Pixie Dream Girl I at least know the reference to since TVTropes has consumed many hours of my life. (damn it for linking to other terms that look enticing, which then link to others, and others, and...)

Is it implying that the male counterpart in the Manic Pixie Dream Girl trope is somehow a dudebro? I re-read the article, and I don't get that as being a requirement for the role._________________My deviantArt - Blog-ity blog
